The Economic Growth Support Programme – Phase II (PACE-II) is the second phase of a programme-based budget operation to support reforms over the 2017-2019 period. PACE-II is a continuation of PACE-I. It covers 2019 and aims to consolidate the gains of previous budget support operations in general and PACE-I, in particular, through such complementary structural reforms as: (i) the adoption of a revenue mobilisation optimisation action plan; (ii) the publication of tax exemption related social expenditure; (iii) the revision of the Mining and Customs Codes; and (iv) the operationalisation of the Sustainable Development Fund. The appraisal of PACE II took place in a context of worsening global security with the appearance of new pockets of conflicts in the centre of the country, especially in Ségou and Mopti Regions. Structured similar to Phase I of the programme, PACE II comprises three complementary components: (a) improvement of public finance management; (b) promotion of competitiveness and private sector development; and (c) strengthening of inclusive development. These three components will contribute to addressing the main constraints and challenges facing the country.
